When the gutted body of a businessman is discovered in the Icelandic embassy in Berlin, Iceland<U+2019>s best detectives are sent to Germany to investigate the crime. The stab wounds and the murder weapon suggest a ritualistic killing. But the only suspects present in the sleek modern office building were some of the island nation<U+2019>s cultural elite. The victim is someone few would miss, and investigators Birkir and Gunnar, joined by forensics expert Anna Thórdardóttir, wager they have an open-and-shut case on their hands. What they find is anything but: The crime reeks of premeditation and vengeance, and leads the team into a sordid tale of international child abuse, arson, and retribution
